Great win for the Lions and should secure their berth in tourney. Hopefully we can still avoid a play in game.

Now I am going to be hard on Nittany Nation. You have the wrong score in your write up. You refer to Rutgers instead of Illinois in your pre-game write up. Sentences make no sense. This has happens over and over again all season in both football and basketball. I have let it go but can’t any longer. If I or my junior associates at work ever sent this type of work to clients we would be fired.

For all of those who said it is hard to beat a team 3 times in one season, well guess they were a bit wrong. Penn State just does match up really well against Illinois, we have more offensive weapons, and I also think we have a better coach. Must be something, and two of the three games were in Illinois.

Wow, they were off by 2 points in the write up. Whoever did that should be fired.

Well, it was hard. Blew a lead and had to come from behind.

Hard, not impossible.

With Lundy, Funk and Wynter playing well, and Pickett being Pickett, this team is a tough out for anybody.

The write up for the game which probably clinched the tournament for us was a strange hill to die on.
